“If you are a client seeking therapy for anxiety, or because of post-traumatic or dissociative symptoms, then I would be a good fit for you. Therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to determine what you need. I used both cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic approaches in therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy addresses changing thoughts and behaviors that could be contributing to symptoms. Psychodynamic therapy explores the origin of symptoms.

“It takes courage to ask for help and begin this journey we call psychotherapy. I honor your strength and will bring a thoughtful and genuine presence to our work together. I believe the connection that develops between therapist and client is key to self-discovery, healing, and change. Psychotherapy supports the development of good relationships, healthy boundaries, mindfulness, attention to balance, and empathy and respect for yourself and others. I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space in which personal growth and self-acceptance are encouraged.

“Therapy provides a safe and supportive helping relationship through which clients can explore inner resources, experience empowerment, and discover ways of accomplishing desired life changes. I believe the task of the therapist is to walk with the client along the path of self-discovery and then assist the client in living discovered truths. The client provides a view of his/her private world through interactions with the therapist. As a reflective therapist, I believe what happens between the therapist and client in the therapy room is a very rich source of information that can be used to enhance therapeutic success.

“I am a Christian counselor in the City of Atlanta. I specialize in a prayer ministry approach to counseling that uses praying for the client and guiding the client in prayer as the primary framework in addition to standard counseling techniques. Much of this prayer "work" focuses upon forgiveness and breaking agreements with unhealthy ways of living and thinking. I also am trained in Splankna, a Christian form of EMDR, NET, and EFT that is very effective in working with trauma and anxiety. I feel that counseling is most effective when it is holistic: addressing the body, mind, and spirit. www.leahlesesne.com
